In recent years, composites have become the material of choice for direct restorative procedures amongst patients and dentists. The factors that affect the reliability of a composite restoration are esthetics, tooth, material, adhesive and the operator. As composites and adhesives are becoming more and more reliable, they play a significant part in everyday dentistry.
Today, there is a need to improve the efficiency of dental appointments. This includes placing direct composite restorations in an efficient manner without compromising on performance and esthetics. First, the conventional layering technique is shown. Afterwards, the efficient Bulk technique is explained.
In this webinar, you will learn more about the following subjects:
- Applications of universal adhesives
- Clinical considerations between universal and bulk-fill composites
- Adequate polymerization times
- Accessories to help reproduce morphology, surface texture and lustre
